Lead the or Fall called Once Before Us "a standout co-op experience" 🥹 "Every puzzle demands communication and collaboration, making it a worthwhile challenge for any duo." that made my weekend 💛 store.steampowered.com/app/3849930?utm_source=bluesky #CoOpGame #IndieGame

We Are So Cooked got delayed to January, but there's a demo up now for Next Fest: co-op, drag a body to the exit unseen, one action at a time so you need the other player 😅 cogconnected.com/2026/09/we-are-so-cooked-delayed-to-2027-steam-next-fest-demo-confirmed/ #CoOpGame #IndieGame

Five weeks since Once Before Us went live, and it still doesn't feel real that strangers play it with someone they love 😅 2-player co-op, no solo mode, someone has to be with you the whole way. Who would you play it with? store.steampowered.com/app/3849930?utm_source=bluesky #CoOpGame #IndieGame

In Games We Trust, a Steam curator with 14K followers, just recommended Once Before Us 🥹 for a small indie co-op game thats a big one for me. if theres someone you'd play it with, a repost would mean the world 💛 store.steampowered.com/app/3849930?utm_source=bluesky #CoOpGame #IndieGame

A couple reviewed Once Before Us and the last line got me 😅 "absolutely worth giving a go. Just perhaps avoid playing it immediately before couples counselling." - Indie-cent Exposure The bugs they hit are fixed now 💛 store.steampowered.com/app/3849930?utm_source=bluesky #CoOpGame #IndieGame

Still under Steam's 10-review mark, so the store page shows no score yet. If you've played Once Before Us and have a minute, an honest review would mean more than almost anything right now 💛 store.steampowered.com/app/3849930?utm_source=bluesky #CoOpGame #IndieGame

That moment when you both get it at the same time 😄 Who would you solve this with? store.steampowered.com/app/3849930?utm_source=bluesky #CoOpGame #IndieGame

Three players hit the same stuck puzzle this week. Fixed it today, turned out to be one line of code. Once Before Us needs two players. If you have someone to drag through it, I would love for you to try 💛 store.steampowered.com/app/3849930?utm_source=bluesky

Every chapter in Once Before Us is a different world. Which one would you jump into first? store.steampowered.com/app/3849930?utm_source=bluesky #CoOpGame #IndieGame

A Game About Digging A Hole is getting a co-op sequel - 4 players, crossplay, digging together.

Don't leave your partner behind 👀 Who would you bring into this cave? store.steampowered.com/app/3849930?utm_source=bluesky #CoOpGame #IndieGame

Three weeks since launch today. Most days are quiet, but then someone sends a screenshot of a puzzle they just solved together and it's worth it all over again. Who would you want next to you here? 💛 store.steampowered.com/app/3849930?utm_source=bluesky #CoOpGame #IndieGame

This little clip somehow became our most watched short and I still don't know why 😅 store.steampowered.com/app/3849930?utm_source=bluesky #CoOpGame #IndieGame

Two weeks since launch, quieter than I hoped. Then a player who finished it wrote "the best co-op puzzle game", harder than any co-op they'd played. That one keeps me going. If you played it, a Steam review helps more than you know 💛 store.steampowered.com/app/3849930?utm_source=bluesky

I launched my 2-player co-op puzzle game 8 days ago. Steam hides the review score until 10 reviews - we're at 1. Played Once Before Us with someone? A one-line review would genuinely help a solo dev. store.steampowered.com/app/3849930/... #CoOpGame #IndieGame

Rivage launched this week — a solo sci-fi puzzle game trapped on a space station where time's gone wrong. Different flavor than mine (Once Before Us needs two people), but happy to see more story-first puzzle games getting real love. www.rivagethegame.com #CoOpGame #IndieGame
